I think what he is trying to tell you that he is only selling the 160x160mm and not the 80x160mm anymore. The 160/160 panels are 1/32 scan but to big for the use with pinball machines.

Due to the production change of the chinese advertising panels. a redesign of the shield hardware was necessary. The new shield supports the piggy-back installation on all supported panel types (64x32 and 64x64). We took the chance to also change from the STM32F4 DISCO board to the Nucleo-144 board series. We currently support the STM32F429 Nucleo-144 which more or less is the same as the discovery board but Nucleo-144 series offers a wide range of powerful processors (up to 400Mhz ARM7) for the future. - added support for panels with different RGB color sequence (GRB etc) (use onscreen menu to change) - added support for 4bit high speed SD card access on Nucleo board - store config also in eeprom - PIN2DMD XL support on Nucleo-144 shield (public firmware Version 2.01) Schematics and layout of the Nucleo Shield and also a DC-DC converter breakout board can be found on github.

No problem, you can take it. It is free. We use 4bit SDIO with the Nucleo, That is why we changed the waveshare SD module which is widely available. That is the cheapest source I found so far https://de.aliexpress.com/item/10PCS-WaveShare-Micro-SD-card-module-memory-module-development-board-SD-card-connector-Free-shipping/32616654794.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I changed some SILK SCREEN settings in the layout from the V4 Board. Because of a better readable print on the PCB. The Traces are 100% the same. I like to contribute that back to you.

Content Provider UncleSash Posted September 11, 2017 Content Provider Share Posted September 11, 2017 Hello Folks. I am back from Vacation, but not in Town for the next week. But I Ordered the first batch from the V4 Shield, they should be available in 2 Weeks. (except the SD Card reader) The PCB Design is the reference design from Lucky1. I also Orderd the Original WaveShare micro SD Card Shield , from the Waveshare webdside (delivery takes 2-4 weeks) The Price is all most the same. just 5 Bugs more, because of the Expensive SD Card Shield and the new Controller. The rest is the same. I have also 14 pcs V3 shields (+ 9 STM Dicovery Controllers), still here. The will go for a nice Discounted price, when I am back in South Carolina (next week).

Joppnl Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Hello Lucky1, can I have your support for this please: I'm experiencing a problem with the PIN2DMD when selecting / starting a table within PinballX. Problem is that PIN2DMD looses track of the colors. Example: see this: this is a static company logo as defined and displayed by the pin2dmd within PBX, everything fine: Now...when pressing Start to play this table the display immediately looks like this : Same with i.e. a Williams logo: Starting the tablew will give this: Some thing I've noticed: 1) the wrong colors are always the same "wrong" when starting a table so it's always the same wrong picture showing up 2) when a table has started and the wrong picture shows up: when pressing "pause" the display resets, showing the image again, always right. When exiting this VPX pause menu back to the table the picture now always is right. 3) These are static pictures used with EM machines or machines without DMD. When I have a DMD machine the pin2DMD shows an active (not static) movie in pinballx. When starting a table the color also changes to "weird" but because the display is being refreshed by the table itself the color comes back ok. 4) More difficult: not always the pin2dmd goes wrong (but most of the time it is. I can not remember having this problem with the previous firmware (not sure but I would remember) so it look likes it's introduced with the latest firmware. I tried both the latest driver found on your github page as well as the one that comes with the latest pinmame beta updates, both the same. Thanks for your support, if you want more info let me know, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider lucky1 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Content Provider Share Posted September 13, 2017 I don´t think this comes from the latest firmware. To verify you could try older versions available on github. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider lucky1 Posted September 14, 2017 Author Content Provider Share Posted September 14, 2017 Another idea ! Could it be that the tables use pinmame and you have use external DMD checked although you don´t want to use it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
